Haryana Public Health Engineering and Public Works Minister Ranbir Gangwa chaired a meeting of the District Development and Monitoring Committee at the PWD Rest House in Rewari on Thursday. He directed the committee to allocate the approved Rs 14.20 crore for the district's development in 2026-27 across all blocks and municipal bodies based on population.
Focus on Quality and Monitoring
The minister emphasized regular monitoring and review of development works, stressing the importance of quality. He also reviewed projects approved in the previous financial year 2025-26. Gangwa urged officials to ensure timely resolution of residents' complaints to reduce the need for approaching the Grievances Committee.
Grievance Redressal Meeting
During the District Grievances Redressal Committee meeting, 10 out of 14 complaints were resolved on the spot. Santosh Devi, a resident of Anaj Mandi, raised an issue regarding her plot in HSVP Sector 4. She had taken possession and built a boundary wall, but HSVP refused to approve the building plan due to a layout change. The minister directed the Deputy Commissioner to resolve the matter promptly.
Manjeet Kumar from Sector 19 complained about a 10-metre wall built in front of his 6-marla plot, requesting its removal. Gangwa ordered the encroachment to be removed within seven days.
Residents of Ansal Township reported being denied electricity connections due to a dispute between Ansal and the power corporation. The minister directed Ansal representatives to clear the outstanding amount within 15 days to enable installation of new transformers.
Officials Present
The meeting was attended by Kosli MLA Anil Yadav, Municipal Council Chairperson Vinita Pippal, BJP district president Dr Vandana Popli, Rewari Deputy Commissioner Abhishek Meena, ADC Rahul Modi, SP Hemendra Kumar Meena, and Kosli SDM Vijay Kumar Yadav.
Infrastructure and Monsoon Preparedness
Speaking to reporters, Gangwa said new super-sucker and jet machines have been purchased for cleaning sewer lines and are being dispatched to every district. He added that officials have been instructed to address waterlogging ahead of the monsoon season. Responding to a query, the minister asserted that the Public Health Engineering Department supplies drinking water only after laboratory testing, and canal water is provided in areas with poor groundwater quality.
